About this tool
A sitemap parser that takes a sitemap.xml file (paste the raw XML) and extracts every URL with its metadata — lastmod, changefreq, and priority. It shows a stats overview (total URLs, count with each field, domains used), a sortable table of all entries, and validation warnings for common issues such as missing <loc>, invalid priority values (< 0 or > 1), unknown change frequencies, or URLs without an http:///https:// scheme.
Example: paste a sitemap with 50 URLs → see that 45 have a lastmod date, 30 have changefreq, 3 have invalid priority values (> 1.0), and URLs span 2 domains. Export the list to CSV for further analysis or to share with the SEO team.
Useful for SEO audits, checking a client's sitemap for compliance, validating a freshly generated sitemap before upload, or extracting a URL list from a sitemap you found on someone's site.
FAQ
Does it follow sitemap index files? ›
Not yet. If your XML is a sitemap index (points to other sitemaps rather than URLs directly), the parser will report no <url> entries. Copy each individual sitemap from the index separately.
What does it validate? ›
Missing <loc> tags, URLs that don't use http/https, priority values outside 0.0–1.0, and invalid changefreq values (valid: always, hourly, daily, weekly, monthly, yearly, never). It does not verify that the URLs actually resolve or return 200.
Can I export the parsed data? ›
Yes. Click "Export CSV" to download all URLs and their metadata as a CSV file for spreadsheet analysis, or "Copy table" to copy a tab-separated table to your clipboard.
Does it support namespaced XML? ›
Yes. It uses the standard sitemap namespace (http://www.sitemaps.org/schemas/sitemap/0.9) and falls back to non-namespaced tag names if namespace-aware lookups return nothing.
How do I create a new sitemap from scratch? ›
Use the <a href="/sitemap-generator" class="text-accent hover:underline">Sitemap Generator</a> to build one with a form — add URLs, set lastmod and priority, then download the sitemap.xml file ready for search engines.
